Hi Sarah
I have a transcript of a family letter that says that John and Polly had no children (or
actually none were still alive as of 1896.) I will send you an invite to my Adin Williams
tree, but I have not been able to prove who his parents were. Please email or message me
on Ancestry if you don't get the invite. My theory is that Adin (born in Ohio c.
1827) was definitely a grandson of Simeon and Tirzah (Knight) Williams, who were in Butler
Co Ohio for the 1820 and 1830 census. He may have been a son of Simeon's son Adin who
moved with them to Indiana, then went on to Iowa and California. The theory is that the
younger Adin didn't want to go west and moved back to NY to live with his uncle John.
